Sewn Doll Bodies

I have had to make some changes in a few of the original body designs.

Not all of them were workable and others way off the mark.

Some modifications were necessary, but most bodies will be the original artist’s design, and changes were only made when the body didn’t work with the porcelain pieces.

Some doll heads also work on other artist’s bodies, so If you are not using the original arms, legs or shoulderplate/breastplate for a doll, please indicate the change in parts so that a body can be sewn to use them.

Also, let me know if the doll is going to be African American.

All dolls other than African American will be sewn in Ivory colored fabric.

Most dolls can be ordered with a pvc tube up the center of the body so that they may use a stand with a dowel rod.

Adult male dolls will automatically come with the tube, but if you wish it added to another doll, add $2.50 to the price.

Most bodies are made from either bottom weight twill or broadcloth, and not stuffed, but will come with craft wire through the arm and leg casings.

Dolls requiring bear joints will come with those installed.

Ballerina bodies are made from a sturdy stretch material.

Doll pellets are available on the site for dolls requiring them. (One 1½ lb. bag is enough to complete a 19 inch Sugar Britches).

All bodies are made to order, and orders will take two or three days to fill.
